We just learned today that your office and your
consultants for the recruitment of the Civil Rights
Director have directed the Director finalists to
cancel their attendance at two �meet the community�
meetings scheduled for next week.

We want an immediate response from your offices citing
the legal authority by which you issue this directive.

The names of the finalist have been made public
pursuant to Minnesota state statue.  We assume then
that the public has a right to hear from the finalist
and their community has a right to meet them.  If this
is not the case please respond to us citing the
appropriate legal authority. Otherwise we will assume
that our position is proper and we will proceed.

As you know, the City Council HHS committee is holding
a public hearing on May 3, 2004 regarding selection of
the candidate for the Director�s position.  How is the
public supposed to get information about the
candidates and their position on civil rights so that
we can make an informed presentation to Council if we
ware denied access to the candidates.

We are extremely concerned about this apparent clamp
on the civil rights of the community to have just
minimal input to the process.  The Civil Rights
Director is hired to serve the community.  We have a
right to hear from these candidates before one of them
is selected. We look forward to your responses.
